Sketch Magazine .Net: Sharing online How To’s and Tutorials

Bill Nichols — Sun, 06 May 2012 02:14:09 +0000

You should always be learning as an artist, no matter what level you are. And many of the creators at the top of their game will tell you that as well. Some even share what they’ve learned in the form of step-by-step videos or pages on their websites. That idea of sharing and teaching what you have to share is one thing that Sketch Magazine, the print mag, strives to do.

But we also have an online place where we want to share this stuff, http://sketchmagazine.net. Think of it as a meeting place of the creative minds where we can share links to this stuff all over the internet.

So, if you happen to come across any of those awesome things, drop me a line at comicsmentor@gmail.com with SketchBlog link as the subject or something…

That includes ones that you do as well! And if you don’t, then perhaps it’s time you do. Don’t be shy. Show off your knowledge.

Create. Inspire . Teach.
